Boundary scan interconnect testing turns silicon multiplexers into virtual probes to verify fine-pitch BGA solder joints without physical test pads.
First Pass Yield Numbers That Hide a True Defect Rate
Factory first pass yield figures routinely mask high field defect rates by excluding off line retests, unmapped fault coverage gaps, and clamping stress false passes.
The Standard Electrical Tests a Finished Board Goes Through
Standard electrical tests verify bare substrate isolation, component pin continuity, thermal stress survival, and electromagnetic conformity before batch signoff.
Test Point Access Argued before the Layout Is Released
Resolving test point access before layout release prevents costly PCB re-spins, ensures high fault coverage, and protects assembly yield.
